The Oxenbridge King Quotes

“Come with me to the shops and the coffee bar. Come with me to the bright fragile nonsense of everyday life, to work and play, and love and washing up. He won't. She knows deep in her bones her life could never hold him. [ ] She wants to say, I'm Molly, your girl, your lovely, your end and your beginning, but she is not that for him and never has been. This is what they both knew in the love they made. The leaving, the leaving, the leaving. She takes his hands from her face because there's nothing else to do.”
― Christine Paice, The Oxenbridge King
